Blood curdling screeches inside your head
No tears my dear, the curse has been read
Fight if you want, It's to no avail
Welcome to place that we call Hell
It all starts out tabula rasa- blank slate, indeed. Pitch black all around you, and a silence that only the wolves can break. No one can hear you, so why do you cry? Come, love, do not fear me. I am here to save you. Who are you? I, I am you. Spinning head, and dizzy, twisted thoughts- where have you taken me? I've have taken us inside of ourselves. Do you understand now? Can you now begin to fathom the pain you've been wading in, my love? Light! but it's so far away from us. I can reach, and stretch, and run and jump...but I do not get any closer. Yet, they keep telling you that you're almost there? Should you give up and lay your weary body down? Maybe you can reach it someday.
Maybe...maybe...maybe.
I'm slowly waking into the 'real' world again, and it upsets me. If I had the choice, I would stay inside of my dreams for all eternity. A place when nightmares seem more real. Now, why would I like that better than reality? Listen closely to the thunder. "Reality is the deadly truth, Dreams are a beautiful illusion."
It's useless trying to fight the steaming, afternoon sun when she burns underneath the lids of your eyes. Where was this blast of light coming from? I shield my eyes with the shadows of my hands, and search for the source. There is an open door and the other end of the dark eternity where a silhouette blocks some of the blinding, heated light. Reality came rushing back through me and the memories hit me like a semi-truck traveling at 70 mph.
I was thrown into the back of the car, my head being slammed against the side of the door and busting upon contact. I hadn't noticed the scream coming from my mouth until a large, rough hand clamped down on it. Thrashing and kicking my legs, I fought with all I had, but it was not nearly enough. The man holding me down pinched my nose to cut off any air supply, and I kept trying to kick him or punch him or...or- or anything! I started to spiral into the nothing. All muscles became weak, and my body chilled over...
The figure approached me as a lion would stalk up on its hyena prey in the tall blonde glass. For the first time since I woke up, my heart beat a stiff pound that echoed through the dark. With each step the shadow took, an explosion went off inside of me. Heat swelled up in my veins, a sharp, cold breath of air, boom, tension, boom, step, boom…Boom….Boom…..boom.
